Other studies abroad opportunities may be considered with prior approval by faculty.
UF students interested in participating in this summer’s program must complete a pre-application screening by submitting an unofficial transcript and a letter of interest (up to 1500 words) detailing the following:

  1. your motivations and interest in participating in a study abroad program generally
  2. your interest in participating in a study abroad program in Croatia specifically
  3. an explanation of how you believe this experience will enrich your education and training as a landscape architect

Your letter of interest and an unofficial transcript must be submitted by email to Kevin Thompson, Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture, University of Florida at gday@ufl.edu.
UF pre-application screening closes on January 3rd, 2020.

Prescreening reviews will happen on a rolling basis and eligibility will be determined within just a few days.  Once your prescreening application has been reviewed and approved, you will be directed to complete an online UGA study abroad application.  The deadline for this application is December 16, 2019 but will remain open on a rolling basis until full.  Early applications are advised.
For more information, please email Kevin Thompson, gday@ufl.edu.
